RE: Lets see your crazy designs!
Have you tried flying this design before? I take it, it will be powered by an electric motor?
I don't get too crazy but i do like to come up with my own designs usually of conventional
configuration. My last can be seen here http://www.tjlewis1.rchomepage.com/html/projects.html
My upcoming winter project here http://tjlewis1.rchomepage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10
Please post pics of it finished ready for flight.

Here they are. This lawnmower is made out of depron&balsa. Uses 3 standard servos and is powered by magnum .15. Flies quite well, although it still needs a lot of trimming.

Hello out there in RC world! I have a wierd little airplane. Actually, I HAD a wierd little airplane. Tell me what you think. It was made out of foam board presentation type paper stuff. You know, the stuff you get at a craft store for a couple of bucks a sheet. It flew great, but the ground handling was awefull! Let me know.

RE: Lets see your crazy designs!
Dick, nice looking plane. I'm confused about the ground handling, though. Is it going to be hand launched? Or is there more to the landing gear that you still have to add?
